The Bears are 5-1. I don't give a fuck how they're winning. They're going to be underdogs every single game. I'm going to keep betting on them... the defense is back... I know that deep down the Bears are destined for a 10 and 6 11 and 5 record and then to lose in a heartbreaking way in the first round and everyone to shit down my throat.
